Since the Windows 10 creators update seems to have messed up my photoshop and I wasn’t able to find a solution (yet?), the map of the assigned regions won’t get any updates, I fear. But it’s nearly complete, fortunately.
That said, I decided to assign Artidax to Makuta Anjan because a) he fulfills all requirements for that assignment and b) it makes sense in terms of his backstory.
Updated list is in post 1223 Rules can be found in post 1223 and additions in post 1 There are again Makuta to be assigned
Yeah, saw that, too, yesterday evening. It’s great that this is finally possible.
I’ll update the first post right away and will also link all the different MOC topics again over time.
Post one contains the updated list and rules again
Considering this recent change I’d also like to encourage everyone to check if the pictures of their Makuta are still visible in the topics - last time I checked this seemed to not be the case anymore for Xoth and Isthra by @Willess12, Icarax by @Toa_Heatwave and Jsasax by @RedHuna101.
Oh, and I guess I should also mention that due to …technical problems it might be that I suddenly disappear for some time. My Laptop’s ventilation system started making wierd sounds and today I found some broken pieces inside it that might once have been part of it… So I’m planning to buy a new computer relatively soon.
Alright, @Gilahu, I would like to say that, so far, I have found my Makuta’s calling. Originally, I was rolling all around the globe with ideas that stretched from janitor (a profession which, while reading through the topic, was already taken) to rahi quality control. Most of these didn’t seem to work in the long term, however I am settling on the idea of riot control. Not exactly a general or a warlord, more so a one-“man” unit that’ll surveil all regions as to quickly crush any major uprisings. Input your critiques…
Seems definitely like a good basis…
Under Miserix’s rule I’d say your Makuta’s job should be a little more diverse, though - he could have been an agent who was sent to wherever there was trouble of some kind. Stopping dagerous Rahi on a rampage, tracking down smugglers, occasionally working as a diplomat, etc.
Then, after the Great Disruption, Makuta are assigned to the different regions of the universe (there are still two regions left and I think your Makuta would deserve one - see below the list). All of this makes your Makuta’s former job redundant - which he isn’t happy about. At the Convocation he realizes that Teridax’s plan might give him his job back - so he joins Teridax.
After that Teridax orders him to quell any rumors about the Brotherhood taking a turn for the worse and to secretly track down any individuals and groups who spread them. Or something like that.
I’d appreciate it, if your Makuta also dies in a …creative way - it still has to make sense, though. I wouldn’t like it too much if some random mob was responsible for killing him…
Post 1 is updated again There are still Makuta to be assigned
@Gilahu I have a project I’m working. It’s a huge undertaking (and I’ve barely got started on it as of yet), but it’s basically supposed to be a stop motion telling of the Bionicle G1 story from beginning to end. There’s a lot more to it than that, of course, but I just want to ask if it’s alright if in this project I use your list of Makuta (names, bios, etc.) as a basis for my brotherhood of Makuta?
Just keep in mind that despite my best efforts not all bios in the topics are completely canon compatible.
Feel free to ask me about things concerning that, though.
Post 1 is updated again There are still Makuta to be assigned
@Gilahu I’ve made a new topic with the second version of my Makuta, please note that I’ve changed his name (although minor) so update the topics as neccesary.
[Edit] There may be a third version so refrain from the art until I decide whether or not to do a more evil looking version. I’m a Link, Click me

Post 1 is updated again There are still Makuta to be assigned
I like it, it’s extremely helpful and I don’t have to go into each Makuta’s bio to know a general synopsis of the brotherhood’s dealings over the years.
Also, @Gilahu My Makuta is nearly finished, I just have to take some pictures and make the topic. May take me just a bit longer than usual, but I should have it done before today ends.
You mean the Book of the Brotherhood entries? No. I’m planning to post them once the project is finished - which might still take a while. Plus presently there are only 36 entries finished… How much I work on them also always depends on how much I currently have to do for university - because if I’ve already spent three hours writing stuff I’m always lacking motivation to do more writing…
With the drawings I made better progress so far - currently working on either number 67 or 69…
Here I have my finished Makuta, Triokodex. Do what you will with him.
I have now done a complete fix on his backstory. Hopefully now there isn’t anything wrong with it, and I stayed accurate to the canon. I also changed his name to Straintol. I can change it again if that doesn’t work out.
